Clinical Diagnostics & Research Virtual Event Series 2024

Labroots is excited to announce the 15th Annual Event in the Clinical Diagnostics & Research Virtual Event Series on November 13th, 2024! This event will again bring together clinicians, researchers, medical experts, and professionals to elevate collaboration, advance clinical diagnostics, research, and medicine, and ensure that patient care continues improving with the latest scientific breakthroughs.

This year’s event promises to be a comprehensive and engaging forum where thousands of attendees will discuss the continuous progress in laboratory testing and patient care. With new technologies and treatments, staying updated on regulatory processes is crucial to ensure patient safety and proper practices.

This years tracks include:

Clinical Diagnostics and Methods

  • Liquid Biopsy and Circulating Biomarkers: Non-invasive diagnostic tools that detect cancer and genetic mutations through blood samples.
  • CRISPR-Based Diagnostics: Gene-editing technology applied to diagnostics for rapid, specific detection of diseases.
  • Point-of-Care Testing (POCT): Diagnostic testing performed at or near the patient, providing immediate results and reducing reliance on centralized labs.
  • Digital Labs and Remote Diagnostics: Virtual diagnostic tools and remote data processing that improve lab efficiency and allow for off-site diagnostic capabilities.
  • Metabolic Biomarkers: Identifying key metabolites in the body that indicate specific health conditions, including metabolic disorders, to guide diagnosis and treatment.

Translational Research: From Bench to Bedside and Back Again

  • Early Phase Clinical Trials to evaluate the safety of new therapeutic strategies in patients
  • Late Phase Clinical Trials to test for therapeutic efficacy in a controlled clinical setting
  • Research on clinical outcomes to access implementation into clinical practice
  • The value of correlative studies to validate scientific and clinical progress
  • Regulatory considerations and challenges

Epidemiology

  • CRISPR-Based Diagnostics in Infectious Diseases: The use of CRISPR technology to identify infectious diseases rapidly and support public health surveillance.
  • Microbiome Analysis in Epidemiology: The study of microbial communities to understand the role they play in disease outbreaks and public health.

Opioid Crisis

  • Monitoring Opioid Use: Advanced diagnostic techniques, including molecular assays and liquid biopsies, to track patient compliance and drug metabolism.
  • Non-Opioid Alternative Treatments: Exploring alternatives to opioid-based treatments, such as biologics and other therapeutic interventions.
  • Biomarker Discovery for Pain Management: Identifying novel biomarkers to guide personalized pain management therapies.
  • TDM (Therapeutic Drug Monitoring) for Biologics: Ensuring optimal dosages of biologic treatments to improve outcomes in pain management.
  • Liquid Biopsy for Drug Monitoring: Utilizing liquid biopsy to non-invasively monitor the presence of drugs and metabolites in patients.

Regulatory

  • Regulatory Implications of Molecular Diagnostics: Examining the regulatory challenges and approvals associated with introducing molecular diagnostics into clinical practice.
  • Proficiency Testing for HgA1c: Ensuring accuracy and consistency in HbA1c testing through regulated proficiency testing standards.
  • Impact of PAMA: Assessing how the Protecting Access to Medicare Act affects lab test pricing and reimbursement, especially for molecular diagnostics.
  • Biomarker Validation: The process of confirming that a biomarker is a reliable indicator of a specific biological or disease state, essential for regulatory approval.

Clinical Lab Value

  • Liquid Biopsy in Clinical Practice: How liquid biopsy contributes to improving diagnostic precision, offering non-invasive and real-time monitoring for diseases.
  • Molecular Diagnostics: Advances in genomics, proteomics, and next-generation sequencing that enhance the capabilities of clinical labs for personalized medicine.
  • The application of AI and ML for diagnostics: Implementing ML applications for workflow efficiency.
